Abstract :
Using Rabbani´s model for generation width, a differential equation, which describes the capacitance-time (C-t) transient characteristics of pulsed MOS capacitors was obtained. The theoretical (C-t) transient characteristics can be obtained by integrating this differential equation. It has also been shown that the minority generation lifetime of semiconductors can be determined by matching an experimental (C-t) transient characteristic with the theoretical one
